Hi Todd,
: The historic BSD strip(1) used "-d" to mean the same as objcopy's "-g", aka
: --strip-debug. This has been in NetBSD's strip(1) since the dawn of time
: (before we switched to the full binutils), and we hacked it into binutils's
: strip. Here's a patch to add this back to the binutils sources. This could
: be added to strip.1, if desired, next to -S, -g, and --strip-debug, but I
: thought this might be better as a hidden compatibility option.
I have accepted and applied your patch. Thanks.
Cheers
Nick
